Concluding a powerful and groundbreaking five-season run, Boardwalk Empire is an Emmy® -winning HBO drama series from Academy Award® nominee/Emmy® Award winner Terence Winter and Academy Award® -winning director Martin Scorsese. Season 5 begins in 1931, a full six years after the end of Season 4. In stark contrast with the Roaring ‘20s, the country is in the throes of the Great Depression, and with the end of Prohibition in sight, Nucky is looking to legitimize himself by forging alliances with liquor producers. Season 5 also includes flashback scenes of Nucky, Eli, the Commodore, Gillian and others from 1884-1900 – childhood experiences that would shape their relationships and their futures.

After 4 great seasons the writers ran out of ideas. The last season plot was fractured, lacked continuity and put the characters in stupid situations just so they could end up dead by the finish of the series.
